Welcome to CTE Welding Technology at Kearns High School

News: This year, students who take the Advanced or Intermediate Welding class, may earn credit for Kearns High and Salt Lake Community College (3 credits). There will be an additional charge for the college registration of $40.00. This is a bargain because if you took this same class after you graduate high school at the community college it would cost approximately $800.00. We will talk more about this on the first day of class.
